ENGL 200 D: Reading Literature: Literature in the Marketplace

I think you make great points and conclusions, but I wish you would explain everything more. Maybe it’s because you haven’t put in your quotes and citations yet, but it’s a little hard for me to see how everything ties together. What’s your overall point? I understand how you’re saying that Bond is portrayed as a defender of the economy yet how he seems to be disinterested in it, but I’m not sure what the big message is.

Your point that Bond functions as an economic regulator is a good one. I think it ties in well to what you said about his bottomless wealth. Still, your points are multifaceted and need more explanation and tying together.

I think you make a lot of great points, and your paper is very organized to say this is a rough draft. The one thing I would say is you should definitely expand on some of your thoughts like when you say “Throughout Goldfinger Bond enjoys unparalleled luxury and wears the guise of a high class gentleman, despite his silent contempt for the other showy rich characters in the novel.” I feel like you can expand on this thought by giving examples of why this is important.

By the way I have posted my rough draft. I hope you have time to look at it before the conference. Sorry for the inconvenience.
